Huff~~
Leo exhaled turbid air from his mouth as he unhurriedly opened his eyes.
The feeling of his body being weightless leaves him in a daze as if his weight suddenly decreases by half, moreover, he can visibly see/feel the fine line of muscles beneath his shirt.
Although not much, his body can be considered a semi-athletic before the apocalypse starts.
In addition, with more than a hundred points in his soul power attribute, Leo's speed increased by more than tens of points... Not only that, even the duration of the skill increased by 300%!
A whole 48-day increase in duration!
"If I suddenly feel the correct time, place, and thick spirituality I could re-start the skill... that way the duration would reach its peak, back at its start!"
It could be said that I really gained an almost permanent body!
Smiling foolishly, Leo patted the muscles on his abdomen as he scanned the surroundings...
...
This...
Scanning the surroundings, Leo immediately saw the overturned table and furniture in the building, followed by the deep mark of the blade in the wall and concrete... In the further distance, Leo saw the two darkish skeletons slumping on the ground, on top of them was the white cat resting its paw on the skulls of the skeletons.
What happened?
As he was puzzled by the things that happened around him, Rosa approached his location worriedly. Although he had no idea why, Leo could feel the deep worries of the other party.
"Are you okay?" Rosa asks worriedly as she inspects Leo's body.
"Yeah, why??" Hearing Rosa's inquiry, Leo's confusion further deepened.
"You... Sigh, your skeletons suddenly madly charge toward the cat, swinging their sword in the surroundings. Fortunately, they are still level 1 and their stamina is limited...
"However, that's not the point, the thing is that you suddenly fall unconscious and release a large amount of uncomfortable aura... No, I mean you summon a huge amount of uncomfortable aura." Pausing slightly, Rosa again asks worriedly.
"Are you okay?"
"Yes, sorry for making you all worry. The aura is related to one of my skills... I didn't expect that it would release an aura after upgrading it."
Leo replied dumbfounded, not expecting that there would be a phenomenon after upgrading his "Physical Body of Soul" to the next level. Fortunately, it didn't cause trouble.
However, if I needed to upgrade it to the next level I should find a place far away from the group to ensure that it wouldn't affect them or make them suspicious.
Shaking his head, Leo stood up as he approached the two little skeletons in the distance.
"You two... I just sit down for a while yet you already caused trouble?" Leo seriously said as he flicked his finger toward the head of the two skeletons, causing them to flinch a little due to pain.
Eh, wait something is wrong...
Seeing that the color of their skeleton deepened a little and the flame on their eye socket became much more vibrant, Leo silently activated his scan skill toward them.

"What! How could they upgrade by 4 levels in an instant!?"
Widening his eyes as he gaped toward the little skeleton, Leo immediately checked their panel.

[ Due to the energy that the host gathers after upgrading the skill "Physical Body of Soul" to Level 7, the skeletons unconsciously circulate the energy toward their body, causing them to upgrade by levels! ]
"So does that mean..."
Thinking of something, Leo immediately opened his character panel in anticipation.
[ Level: 20( 350/1200 Exp ) ]
Sure enough, Leo immediately saw that his level increased from the original level 19 to level 20, causing him to reach the peak of the mortal realm.
If he accumulates more exp (best if he maximizes the exp bar) he could start initiating advancing toward the next realm, that way he would become an Early Foundation Establishment human!
An Early Foundation human strength is much stronger than the mortal realm is! Almost 1.5 to 2 times stronger than the level 20 mortal!
It could be said that an early foundation-level humans/beasts could trash humans at the peak of the mortal realm without using much effort!
Of course, Leo's strength is an exception since he has the help of a unique system, and "Physical Body of Soul" which drastically increases his attribute points in an unbelievable way.
Speaking of advancing, he remembers that he could sacrifice items, skills, and materials toward the altar that would materialize in the middle of advancement.
After sacrificing things, the system will grant/bestow him a suitable cultivation technique with equal value to the things he sacrifices!
"So the valuable the sacrifices, the valuable the cultivation technique is... Huh."
"Fortunately, I have a lot of knuckles and unnecessary items in my inventory. Besides that, I still have time to accumulate more sacrifices."
"There's also the inferior potion in the shop, if I bought them all my overall stat could further increase by 40."
Thinking of this, Leo couldn't help but become overly excited as he began to ponder on the spot, causing the black skeleton and Rosa near him to be puzzled.
"Did he become muddle-headed again?"
